Is Ilona hard to play on drums?

35 out of 100 -- a fair first song -- with the independence between the hands and the feet the part that decides it. The beat itself is 17 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

145 bars, about 4:50 at the written tempo. The course takes it in a single sitting of 3 exercises.

What do I need on the kit?

hi-hat, snare, floor tom and kick. Nothing in the part asks for anything else.
